In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by a brother, John Miller; and two sisters, Elizabeth Miller and Mary Belle Miller.

She is survived by two sons, Walter Lee Chalfant of Byesville and William Ray Chalfant of Byesville; a daughter, Patricia Chalfant of Zanesville; five granddaughters and one grandson; nine great-grandchildren; two great-great-grandchildren; and her cat, Taffy.
